Many of the regular season angles, trends and systems do not apply to the Conference Championships and Bowl Games. Some bowl teams bring the needed focus and intensity required to win while other teams treat it more like a vacation and seem to be quite satisfied with just showing up.

It is often said in college football that if you are going to lose a game make sure you lose early because a late season loss cannot be overcome while an early season loss is more easily forgotten. In keeping with that thought, we wanted to know how teams reacted when they started slow but won several games in a row to end the regular season.

Our research focused on bowl favorites who ended the regular season on a winning streak after struggling to begin the season. The oddsmakers have become blind to the fact that these mediocre teams are not favorite material after winning fewer than eight games overall during the regular season.

SYSTEM: Play AGAINST a Bowl favorite with less than 8 SU wins on the season and 20 or more days rest off 3 SU wins. This system has posted a record of 0-17-1 ATS since 1995 failing to cover the spread by an average of 13.4 points per game.

The system is active in the Independence Bowl this year with the Missouri Tigers posting a 7-5 SU record on the season and winning their final three games to become bowl eligible. They first defeated Texas 17 to 5 then faced Texas Tech and won 31 to 27 and they ended the regular season defeating Kansas 24 to 10.
